Galatians 3:8-10
Worldwide English (New Testament)
8 The holy writings say that he will put people right with himself if they believe him, even those who are not Jews. It was written down before God did it. The holy writings told the good news to Abraham ahead of time. It said, `God will make you a blessing to all nations and people.'
9 Abraham believed God and was blessed. And so those who believe God are blessed too, along with him.
10 A curse is on all people who are trying to become good by obeying the law. The holy writings say, `Everyone is cursed who does not always obey everything that is written in the book of the law and do it.'

New International Version
8 Scripture foresaw that God would justify the Gentiles by faith, and announced the gospel in advance to Abraham: “All nations will be blessed through you.”[a](A) 9 So those who rely on faith(B) are blessed along with Abraham, the man of faith.(C)
10 For all who rely on the works of the law(D) are under a curse,(E) as it is written: “Cursed is everyone who does not continue to do everything written in the Book of the Law.”[b](F)
